Yogurt cake with berries — a delicious and soft yogurt cake that is easy to make and butter-free. You can prepare it in just a few minutes. I used electric beaters (like these HERE) to go even faster, but alternatively you can use a fork. The yogurt and berries cake is perfect for breakfast or afternoon snack. I used an 8 in pan (like this HERE). If you use a larger pan, the cake will be lower but still soft and delicious. Greek yogurt makes cakes exceptionally tender; before this berry version I tried the GREEK YOGURT AND STRAWBERRY CAKE and we really liked it. Now let’s see how to prepare the yogurt and berries cake and if you try it, let me know — Barbara.

How to prepare the yogurt and berries cake

Let’s start preparing the yogurt and berries cake: wash the berries (blackberries, raspberries and blueberries) and pat them dry with paper towels. Pour the eggs and sugar into a bowl and beat with electric beaters until you obtain a fluffy mixture.
With the beaters running, add the sunflower oil in a thin stream and let it incorporate.
Add the Greek yogurt and continue mixing with the beaters.
Sift the baking powder for cakes.
and the flour, then keep working until you obtain a creamy, lump-free batter.
Gently fold half of the berries into the batter using a spatula.
Grease and flour the pan, then remove any excess flour. Preheat the conventional oven to 356°F. Pour the yogurt and berries batter into the pan and level it.
Take the remaining berries, lightly toss them in a little flour and arrange them on top of the batter. This step helps the floured berries stay on the surface during baking instead of sinking.
Then sprinkle the entire cake with brown sugar.
When the oven is hot, bake for 40 minutes. Baking times may vary depending on the oven; before removing the yogurt and berries cake, perform the skewer test — if necessary bake for another 5 minutes. When ready, remove from the oven, let cool and dust with powdered sugar.
